While the AAAA puts the finishing touches on its brand-new center, one of the country's most highly ranked institutions is carrying on a tradition that is more than 50 years old. Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management, set in the Chicago lakefront suburb of Evanston, Ill., offered its first executive education course in 1951.
